Vestibular schwannoma presenting as sudden hearing loss [PDF]
The sudden Hearing Loss (SHL) is a symptom caused by more than 60 different diseases, including Vestibular Schwannoma (VS). Shaia & Sheehy (1976) presented a study with 1,220 cases of SHL reporting 1% incidence of VS.

Surgical Management of a Cerebellopontine Angle Tumor After Sudden Onset Facial Paralysis
Patients with cerebellopontine angle tumors rarely experience acute facial weakness. In this report, we summarize a case where immediate tumor decompression after a patient presented with sudden ipsilateral flaccid facial palsy resulted in complete recovery of facial nerve function, followed by staged gross total tumor resection. Return of facial nerve

Gamma knife surgery for facial nerve schwannomas. [PDF]
Radical resection of facial nerve schwannomas classically implies a high risk of severe facial palsy. Owing to the rarity of facial palsy after gamma knife surgery (GKS) of vestibular schwannomas, functional evaluation after GKS seems rational in this ...

The Current Situation and Development of Endoscopic Ear Surgery in China
ABSTRACT Endoscopic ear surgery has been widely performed in China since 2015 due to the development and rapid popularization of endoscopic technology. Due to the relative shortness of the auditory meatus, only a fixed endoscope is required in many cases, rather than a motion similar to a nasal endoscope, and uncontrollable bleeding is virtually non ...

Liquid–Liquid Phase Separation in Major Hallmarks of Cancer
Aberrant condensates formed through phase separation are involved in the dysregulation of various critical cellular processes, including genome stability, transcriptional regulation and signal transduction, thereby promoting malignant transformation and the acquisition of multiple cancer hallmarks.
